IIRC, the person you bet with is in house full of other people gambling with each other, although I think he's the only one who bets with you. It's one of the small houses scattered around the island, shouldn't take you more than a few minutes to find it.

Rivalry raises just Attack, not Special Attack.

No, it raises the power of the move.

Alright, I've got something that's been bugging me for a while...

How on earth does one find a realiable para-shuffler? No matter what I do, I almost always feel like I'm getting killed way too soon, even if I'm forcing switches by swapping wall-types and just TWing on the switch.

Anyone have any good advice on getting good para-support? It's something I've always had issues with. Blissey can handle half of the opponents team with TWave, but after that, I'm a bit lost.

The main thing is to have a good sweeper that can hit stuff but is slow. Rhyperior, Marowak, and the like are good candidates. You can just use regular Pokemon like Snorlax with Body Slam, give Zapdos Thunder instead of Thunderbolt, stuff like that.

what can i do to avoid being roared/whirlwinded out?

Taunt will always stop Roar / Whirlwind (unless they are faster, are Sleeping, use Sleep Talk, and it selects Roar / Whirlwind). Ingraine will block the effects as well, but you cannot switch out, either. If you are faster, you can use Roar / Whirlwind yourself, so you'll go first and they'll get phazed, meaning they can't phaze you. Alternately, just pack a move that hits most of the common phazers so they can't come in. In a Baton Pass chain, Mr. Mime is immune to Roar because of Soundproof, passing to Electrode or Exploud will block Roar for the same reason, and Cradily and Octillery are immune to both Roar and Whirlwind due to Suction Cups. Another method is to faint all your other Pokemon. The last Pokemon cannot be phazed.

People ask for Wish Blissey and Wish Salamence but how is that possible. Based on what I know, Chansey and Salamence can't learn Wish by breeding or leveling up.

Arceus
Darkria
Sheimi (or what ever it is called lol)

How do you change your intro and outro for the wifi battle tower?
Click to expand...

There is a guy in the battle tower that asks you to tell him how you feel before a battle, after a win, after a loss, and upon becoming no. 1. You change you wifi tower intros/outros with him. I love my current "Ill show you useless".

Get more pokes who can help with para-support; like Tangrowth who can deal with grounds and Butterfree with its close-to-100% accuracy w/ Stun Spore and (optional:) get some flinchax on that team too ;)
 
Is hidden power fighting with 56 power enought for a pokémon with 348 Special attack to knock out a tyranitar during a sandstorm after a nasty plot? Without nasty plot?

Oh, accurally I have another question. If I kill a starly with a pokémon holding a power anklet, do it gain 2 or 4 EV's? And how much do it earn if it's infected by the pokérus? Twice?
 
About Taunt and Protect...say I have a Gengar facing a Yanmega. Obviously, first turn Yanmega protects to get the speed boost. During that same turn, Gengar uses Taunt.

Will the taunt prevent him from using Hypnosis next turn, or does Protect prevent the effects of Taunt during the turn they're protecting as well?

Not sure if it's any difference, but the Gengar will be outspeeding the Yanmega first turn, regardless...although I know Protect/Detect have a priority modifier.

Without Nasty Plot (maxed defence TTar)
152 = the highest possible damage
140 = the average damage
128 = the lowest possible damage
Maxed HP TTar has 404hp and Min HP TTar has 310hp so in both cases no!

With Nasty Plot (maxed Defence TTar in Sandstorm)
296 = the highest possible damage
272 = the average damage
248 = the lowest possible damage
Also no.

I made a Damage Calculator to answer just this type of question...

Protect always goes first and completely blocks the effects of taunt so your hypnosis will be unaffected.
 
I need help with the Trophy Garden, how does it expand,or does the Garden stay the same and the Pokemon the Owner Guys Mention just Ultra Rare and hard to catch.
 
What pokes do I breed to breed a riolu with Blazekick I've tried lucario and chimchar, yes the chim has blazekick aswell but they don't seem to like eachother. Do I have to level Chim maybe sense it's still in its "baby" form? What other poke could I breed with?
 
Torchic cant learn Blazekick.

And theres no reason Chimchar and Lucario cant breed unless the daycare man says 'they prefer to play with other pokemon then eachother', anything else means that egg production takes a little longer/less time.
